Created by and with thanks to That Artsy Reader Girl! This week’s theme is supposed to be dedicated to our favourite audiobook narrators, but I’m just not that into audiobooks. I think I’ve listened to a grand total of three of them in my whole life–to be quite honest, I just haven’t got the patience to listen to anyone talk for that long. 🙃 And if I’m continuing to be honest, I know I won’t be posting next week, and next week’s theme really interested me. So here’s to skipping ahead, just like I want to do with audiobooks: here are the first five books I grabbed off my TBR (read: pulled up on Goodreads, thanks to a random number generator)!
.
1. The Stolen Heir by Holly Black
Starting with the one I’ll probably read next! This won the Fantasy round of my 2023 March Madness bracket, so I have you guys to thank for the near-future reading of this 🥰
2. The Kiss Curse by Erin Sterling
Not pictured, because I don’t own it yet–but I’ll be re-reading The Ex Hex, the first in the series, before I read The Kiss Curse, anyway!
3. Graveminder by Melissa Marr
Every Halloween I plan to read this one, and every Halloween so far I’ve failed. I was planning a Season of the Witchy Romcom this year (see: above), but you never know…
4. Anna K. by Jenny Lee
I don’t even know how I haven’t read this yet.
5. Wild and Wicked Things by Francesca May
Another perfect Halloween read! Why are there never enough days in the month, or hours in the day?
.
What audiobooks made your list this week? (Asking for a me, who will probably never listen to it.)
You’re in for a cute ride with The Ex Hex and The Kiss Curse! Cute, witchy reads.

I buddy read it with Dini and Julie. We all liked it but there were some issues. I believe I went with 3.5 stars!

Graveminder sounds super interesting and very Halloween-y. I might have to check it out, too.
Sorry you can’t participate next week, but I’m glad you answered that prompt anyway. 🙂

Halloween reads are a lot of fun! It seems to be an easier season for me to get the feel of from a book than others.

I can dive in pretty easy with any season, but there’s definitely something special about Halloween (and Halloween reads)!

Ooh, I like the covers of all these. I’ve only read Graveminder. It wasn’t my favorite but that could have just been my mood. I will mention that Emma Galvin, the narrator for the audiobook, was fantastic 😉

Mood can make such a difference! (I will definitely try to keep the audiobook in mind, haha!)
